Great spot for a weekend with my daughter and grandson. The heated pool was terrific and so was the food!

Great location, very family friendly, quiet and tranquil! Staff at hotel and restaurant were all very nice and chill. Would definitely consider returning.
Reception area takes care of all of your needs. Very courteous and helpful! Loved the heated saltwater pool and the food at Tickler's was delicious. Can't wait to return!
This is our second stay and it was as wonderful as the first. Quiet and private.
Pool was great and the views were beautiful.
Kayaking, SUP and Fishing, they also had bikes available.Fire pits at night and Ticklers a good place to eat and drink! Very enjoyable, we will be back again and again!
Staff is friendly and professional. Prefer a hot breakfast in the morning. Continental breakfast was well maintained by staff. Good bartender. Two bed in 104 gave me back pain on both nights.
Came for a one night mini vacay and it didn’t disappoint even though it rained. Everyone was friendly! So many amenities to make use of! Loved the sauna, restaurant right out our front door.
Had a view of the water which we didn’t expect!
Was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience.
We had a wonderful stay. A few things I would mention, if you have difficulty with stairs make sure to tell the person taking your reservations. Hopefully they will have a first-floor unit available. The building is very old, and the steps are very steep. The building has been nicely updated and is very well maintained and very, very clean. The views and the amenities are really great.
We had a lovely bungalow on the Chesapeake with beautiful views of the surrounding area. The staff was welcoming and helpful and he amenities were good with lots of yard games and a pretty heated pool. The sauna was an unexpected and appreciated treat. Due to the time of year, the restaurant was not open on one of the nights of our stay.
Bedding was very comfortable but I do wish that, if hotels are going to give you four pillows, that they be of difference weights and thicknesses!
Great, very inclusive facility. Quiet evening, pool, and hot sauna was a fun distraction.
Dinner at Ticklers Crab Shack was so good! the crab & veggie soup was fantastic.The morning coffee and offerings was good as well.
The property was welcoming to pets and us. The property was very pretty with lots of activities to do. The bed was dirty. Hair all inside the sheets and maybe mud? On two of the white under sheets.
We had a great 4th of July weekend at Wylder. The food and view was great. Enjoyed blue crabs. The room is not big but we didn't spend much time in the room. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful when needed.
Check in was incredible. The room was awesome. Dinner was great. There were a couple of problems but they were quickly remedied. We plan on staying again. Awesome stay.
Good family trip. Generously sized room with access to saltwater pool, non motorized water sports, bikes. Friendly staff. Too many flies and mosquitos inside room, restaurant, outside. Wylder needs to invest in electric bug zappers strategically placed at the outer perimeters of the property. Restaurant menu is overpriced and uninspired.
We pulled up to The Wylder on Tilghman Island and immediately was taken back with its charm and character of the entire property. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We met Lauren in reception and she was great! We spent time at Ticklers and enjoying the amenities of the property. We appreciate how dog friendly this resort is, since we love to travel with our dog. As a first time visit to the Island and Wylder, we have felt so welcome and will be planning another visit back soon!
Hotel is very charming but lacks things like a fridge in the room or ice machines available to the public. The room was small but adequate, and the grounds and restaurant were very good. The pool was dominated by parents and children who parked themselves in the pool and stayed all day. No lounge chairs were available and pool was taken. Having said all that, the hotel is very pet friendly.
